An overview of the FireWare blogs.
Learn realistic staging with smoke!
Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. And where there’s fire, there’s smoke. For a realistic staging, smoke is essential. We know all about it and are happy to share our knowledge with you! Topics in this blog: How to create a realistic smoke layer Smoke and CBRNe exercises Comparing smoke machines …
Urban Operations: how to train as realistically as possible?
During the keynote by Colonel Harm van der Have at the Dutch Urban Operations theme day in Harskamp, it quickly became clear that we face a large number of simulation challenges. Due to the increasing environmental requirements, the range of possibilities for training is diminishing. The requirements for realism and…
Staging large-scale tunnel exercises
Preparing emergency services for incidents in a tunnel is not easy. Yet it is very important that care providers can safely train with realistic scenarios. Just like on the normal road, traffic accidents and other incidents occur in tunnels. In order to guarantee the safety of a tunnel, Dutch tunnel…
Staging wildfires
Cannot see the forest for its trees It is difficult to simulate wildfires, because you have to deal with external factors over which you have no control. Think of weather conditions like rain and high winds. Additionally, there are practical issues, like the power supply, that make such a simulation…
Disaster simulations in medical environments
Did you know that FireWare staging technicians did an internship at Meander Medical Centre in Amersfoort, the Netherlands? It was done to get a picture of what actually happens during an operation. Where could dilemmas be found? What does an surgery actually look like? What exactly must be simulated? The…
Better practice through dynamic staging
Proper staging is important. A good staging ensures a clear perception. A clear perception results in less debate during an exercise. Therefore, energy could be invested into a good conversation about the deployment and the accompanying considerations! Proper staging of an incident is only the first step. The next step…
